RE: A day in Guatape: Colombia

Haha I'm not one for ruining a great picture with my face :)
From what I recall Mr. Escobar actually had up to 400 different homes just like this, allowing him to evade authorities when needed. This property is looked after and owned by one of his old staff. I have not gone into deep research about his life and times but I understand there are many who believe he changed the country for the better and mourned his death. That is up to debate. Yes I do agree that the magnitude of his influence is underestimated.
